Car Photography..

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Hey guys..

I've had a busy couple of weeks assisting on car shoots and thought I'd show you what we've been up to! I can't take credit for the actual photo's although some times I am the one that presses "Shoot" on the laptop (before you ask, we don't have a special keyboard with a "Shoot" button!!).

http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/mitssite/jsp/pages/vehicles/vehicles.jsp?groupId=25

All the photo's on that page are by our studio and we're now working on the 380 bits and bobs.

Nice.:D Had one of those as a loan car while my Paj was being serviced yesterday. THE CVT was interesting. Quite a smart little car.

Look forward to your spy shots of the next Pajero :twisted:
Cheers

Yeh, they are a neat little car..I found the Emergency foot brake (instead of hand brake) a little strange!

Yeh it is a bit of a weird car. Fully imported from Japan. It's about 95%plastic, 4.5% rubber and the rest is made up of seat upholstery and very sparingly spread amounts of metal! Kinda cute tho and nice to drive - it has a fancy gear box with this Viscous something technology that makes gear changes so smooth you don't even realise you've left 1st (auto gearbox).

Big V, we were shooting the last lot of 380 photo's in the studio today and I was very tempted to take a shot from the balcony to show the setup but then thought i prolly shouldn't cos we wouldn't want our competitors getting hold of that kind of info! Sorry!

I will say though that it's as much about blocking light as it is casting it.
